Its amazing what happens when I work on the Heep and drink at the same time. What started out as a simple tail light removal and led flush mount install turned into the front clip coming off. (get your popcorn, i might get long winded) I was cutting the holes and you would not believe how much friggin bondo was there. That was buggin me and so were my rusty hackjob repaired floors. So I did what and rational guy would do. I spent about an hour taking the front clip off. So here is what I am going to do, take the tub off, blast, box, and coat the frame, fix the floors and whatever else I uncover on the body, upgrade the F/R diffs (30F 44R), engine, tranny, TC, well you guys get the picture. Stupid tail lights turned into a whole new damn jeep. If anyone is interested I'll update this as I go along w/ pics.
 
:kaioken: I hate Microsoft paint so much. It won't let me resize my pics. I'll have to do it at home. I'll have something for everyone tomorrow.
 
By the time you're done it'll be 1-tons, 4 link F&R, and 42's.. dont' stop now, just take the middle steps out of the equation! :lol:

Besides, when you tube the back half, you'll need to make new brackets for those lights anyway...

I'm already on thin ice with Household 6. I have to get her a new car before I can do anything drastic.
 
Here's what it looked like when I brought it home
